[SYMPTOM]
With PCO 20-MONITO-288 installed, lowercase printers may become
uppercase.
[DIAGNOSIS]
If the 4-CONFIG.CMD has PRINTER command lines without the
LOWERCASE keyword following lines with it for a given unit, the
lowercase setting is reset.
[CURE]
Make SETSPD latch any lowercase setting for a printer unit.
Alternatively, a user might include the LOWERCASE keyword on all
appropriate PRINTER commands in the 4-CONFIG.CMD file.

*****************************************************************************
*** 33.SDC.1
*****************************************************************************
[SYMPTOM]
When SETSPD gets an error reading the CONFIG file, the user has no way
of knowing which line was bad.
[DIAGNOSIS]
SETSPD uses routines from CMD to handle errors. CMD assumes the input
is from the terminal and does not echo the command line after an
error.
[CURE]
Move the necessary routines from CMD to SETSPD and add a routine to
output the command line before issuing the error message.
